You may recall my post earlier about the "Lone Gunmen", whose premiere episode (a few months prior to the actual event) featured a plane flying into the WTC (and the Bushies said they had no clue--obviously, they don't really WATCH FOX).

In any case, it has come to my attention that there's a much more curious episode. It would have been the episode of "Route 66" that didn't play during the week of November 22, 1963. It's titled, "I'm Here to Kill a King" and features an assassin who is intending on a "head shot".

It's available in the fourth season (they held it back).

Tom's not in OUR church (zzco), he's in "Our Church" (the parent organization of many of the herbal religions, including zzco--one of two parents, of course, the other being Cao-Dai). I'm on his mailer (and have been his host, and can attest to the absolute fruitiness of his cooking methods).

Tom sends this:

Greetings,

I was thinking about the current crop of "undead" things, and musing on the various "grim reaper" images that have made a come-back of late, and I proffered that "Dead Like Me" was the result of "Bleach" (assuming the latter predated the former). I just checked, and it does.

I suggest it highly. It's somewhat sophomoric, but it's entertaining, as animes go. Here's episode #1:

EVEN GOD ENJOYS A GOOD LAUGH

2012-06-07T03:04:07Z

There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black:

1. He called everyone brother.
2. He liked Gospel.
3. He couldn't get a fair trial.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:

1. He went into His Father's business.
2. He lived at home until he was 33.
3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was sure He was God.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:

1. He talked with His hands.
2. He had wine with His meals.
3. He used olive oil.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was a Californian:

1. He never cut His hair.
2. He walked around barefoot all the time.
3. He started a new religion.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was an Native American:

1. He was at peace with nature.
2. He ate a lot of fish.
3. He talked about the Great Spirit.

But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:

1. He never got married.
2. He was always telling stories.
3. He loved green pastures.

But the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman:

1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was no food.
2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn't get it.
3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was work to do.

AMEN

So, who is it?

I was pleasantly surprised. I intend to return, to do more "people watching" (great fun).

My most significant moment? We did a line-up at the "Mob Museum". I'd found out something about my Dad that I'd not known earlier (he rounded up the quarter-inch, too, so we were both the "same" height at 6'--I wasn't a quarter inch shorter than him).

But the kicker? I've GROWN (yeah, I know, your'e supposed to shrink as you age, but I'm a non-conformist from way back).

Check the photo. Tell me, how much above 6' am I?

Israeli attack on Iran might pull U.S. into new war

2012-02-25T16:03:53Z

WASHINGTON (AP) - An Israeli pre-emptive attack on Iran's nuclear sites could draw the U.S. into a new Mideast conflict, a prospect dreaded by a war-weary Pentagon wary of new entanglements.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gestures as he speaks during a press conference at his Jerusalem office on the economic situation on Wednesday.

Now, given that the US has already been caught using drones to spy on Iran, and we have the capacity to detect radiation, I would venture a guess that the reason we aren't siding with Israel on this issue is because we aren't detecting a bomb, or a bomb-factory.

One has to wonder what Israel's motivation for starting WWIII is?

Perhaps it's merely more press time. If it wasn't for all those stories about bombing Iran, the news might be about the ongoing war crimes and atrocities in occupied Palestine.
